Phi Sigma Sigma
was founded at Hunters College in New York, New York on November 26,
1913. Our Founders aimed to establish a sorority in which a membership
was not based on one's social status, religious affiliation, or personal
background. Open membership to all women of character regardless of
their background. On November 26, 1913 the first nonsectarian sorority
was born. Collegiate and Alumnae members around the world to this day
live by our Founder's inspiration and Phi Sigma Sigma's Core Values: lifelong
learning, inclusiveness, and leadership through service.
